The Mansion

At some point in Marionville, Missouri a man decided he was going to build a house out of concrete. He used one solid slab cantilever on top of concrete walls creating a raised house with a cool basement. His intention was to build the house on top of the solid slab. For one reason or another the construction halted after the concrete was poured and the house was never finished.

This didn't stop Lee and Esther from buying the property seeing as it was just down the road from the family farm. So there it sat, virtually a concrete box sitting on the property so they couldn't resist but to fill it up with junk.

The amusing part of all of this is that they termed the property "The Mansion" because that was what the man wanted to build. Only a visual of the property would help make this funnier.
